The focal objective of this special issue is to provide insight mechanisms while handling data; provide conceptual understanding of network security issues, challenges and mechanisms; develop basic skills of secure network architecture; and explain the theory behind the security of wireless networks, antennas and different cryptographic algorithms. It also aims to provide a forum for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, concerns and practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted in these fields.
There is an imminent and increasing demand for Internet of Things (IoT). Leveraging this blooming technology, one can envisage a lot of changes in the internet world. Big data-based ICT penetration will create an ample number of job opportunities in the industrial sectors, especially for rural people. To describe common network vulnerabilities and attacks, defense mechanisms against network attacks and cryptographic protection mechanisms is also the need of hour. Exploration of the requirements of real-time communication security and issues related to the security of web services is essential. This all relates to the exploration and exposition of the technologies and tools for enabling the extraction of timely and actionable insights from IoT data.
